Opting out

Following the introduction of Auto Enrolment, all employers have a legal duty to automatically enrol their employees into a pension scheme and to advise you when they have done so.

Your employer has, therefore, enrolled you into your qualifying scheme. However, on-going membership of the scheme is not compulsory and you can choose to opt out at any time.

NOTE

It is important that you read the scheme guidance before you complete an opt out form to ensure you are aware of what it is you are opting out of and the benefits of being in the scheme. If you opt out of the scheme, you will have no future claim on the scheme in respect of any period where you have opted out.
